Just make sure you don't get authoritarian bourgeois sneaking into positions of power during the chaos like they tend to do.

Sneaking? The authoritarian bourgeoisie are already in power.

I'm saying that during a revolution, authoritarian type people tend to grab power.

In real, actionable, practical terms: What is the alternative you propose people choose, that will reduce the likelyhood of a fascist government right now at this election?

Yeah, but you don't have more than two options for president of the united states. You have the one supporting unions and the weird racist loony hater one. Anyone suggesting something else might happen this year is lying to you.

We don't get to order off a secret menu in the polling booth. It's just Value Menu or Shit Sandwich.

Claudia and Karina from PSL are an option

I don't think big corporations really believe in proletarian revolution happening so probably not that worried about it tbh

We have to accept false dichotomies because the only alternative is cannibalism.
